Cypriot pollitics are among the most contentious in Europe, and
frequently attract the attention of the international community.
Here, Yiannos Katsourides traces the historical development of the
Cypriot party system, and in particular the growth of the Communist
Party, now known as AKEL- the first formally organised political
party on the island. The party was a political movement with a
specific programme for radical reform that conficted both with the
British Empire and the local establishment. It was treated with
hostility and declared illegal. Based on new archival research,
Katsorides addresses the social, religious, economic and political
environment in which communist and working class politics existed
on the island, and locates them within the context of a country
connected inextricably with Turkey, Great Britain and Greece. This
book will be of significant interest to anyone interested in the
history of Cyprus, European communist movements or British
colonialism and diplomacy in the Mediterranean.
